Time to boycott Tesla, X and all their products. Need to give them back economically. Unfortunately no leader and no public support to Democrats

I’d never buy one even before this given the situation and safety issues.

I am really concerned I'm going to lose some of my most experienced, brilliant team members who can easily retire or get a different job. I've told them that obviously they have to follow their employer's guidelines, but that as far as I'm concerned they've been doing exceptional work in our current hybrid setup.

I am a fed contractor and am actively applying for other jobs. My agency takes months to onboard, so good luck to them finding a replacement.

Huge brain drain from the government and contractors. Putin really got a return on his investment, it could take decades to undo the damage to the military.

So absurd. Biden could have tackled the obvious issue of remote workers and empty buildings but he didn’t. He just ignored it and so many other issues. To blame this situation on Trump is rich. Covid has been over for 2 plus years and still federal employees are remote. Another problem Trump is inheriting from Biden.

Being able to hire PhDs remotely isn't an issue. There isn't a problem with remote work.

Not following. People are bleating about being told to come in. Remote won’t cut it anymore. You will need to show up in person (fed or contractor) OR the government will have to sell buildings or end leases. I am agnostic but the status quo for the last 2 plus years is enormously wasteful. And Biden did nothing about it.

The government has already sold buildings and ended leases.

It's why my DH started telecommuting half a week back in 2006. There are currently three people sharing the same office and / cubicle.

Who are you people who think remote work / telecommuting started in 2020?
And that the federal government hasn't already sold the buildings and stopped the leasing?

All that was done under Obama to save money during the Great Recession.

So should we just sell the building? That would save money, reduce emissions (people driving in). Instead the govt wants to disrupt everyone’s lives so they can support the DC economy and justify buildings. Sell em.

Lunch food prices have gone sky-high. At my spouses building its $15 for a basic sandwich and drink, $18 with chips. Not supporting that non-sense.

Pack a lunch. FFS what’s the next excuse.

Of course, we pack, but its also $15 for tolls, plus gas. And, we need to buy a new car.

Back to the slung line you go

What slug line. We are talking about contractors and a lot of the jobs are in the middle of no where.

Well I had a horrible first day back. I am refusing to buy anything in DC. No paying for parking; no coffee; nothing at the cafeteria. My understanding is that the DC govt is pushing this BS to get people into businesses. Nope.
